American voters, do you really want to identify with this group of selected Trump supporters? These adoring fans are the only people Trump cares about impressing. Trump thrives off of their adoration that Trump can get away with anything he wants to. Supporters that condone bullying women and boasting about taking away their rights. Supporters that prefer the strong arming and use if it's citizens to fight an ugly war from afar of Putin, to the scrappy defend your country and its people or die trying Zelenskyy. Supporters gullible enough to try another insurrection thinking they will get pardons. Etc.
